Updated auto-discovery scripts for better memory estimation

Linux, windows powershell and puppet facter files script that gather device information automatically and upload to device42, have been updated. New auto-discovery scripts have better memory estimation logic.

Linux estimation

Details covered in previous blog post on how a better guess memory estimation is being performed.

Change for windows estimation as well

Powershell or wmi does give a closer # that is multiple of 1024 for memory, sometimes it also reports a lower # than actual. Hence following the similar logic as above, we are using increments of 256MB for better memory estimation in windows scripts.( A newer version of auto-discovery client is also available)

Scripts and source code

Scripts can be downloaded from the device42 support portal.

Also, raw scripts and change log is available at device42 github page.

Auto-discovery client 2.0.3.2 is available at: /autodiscovery/
